Overall, I only use Pages for files that are sent in .pages format. It is a simple word processor for beginners and for people who are not in need of more advanced features which can be customised.

Pros

Pages is a very user-friendly app which you can start using with a minimum learning curve.

Cons

The app is kept really simple, it is easy to find the most important things, however when you require more robust features the app makes it difficult to access those, or it simply does not have those.

The product has been a phenomenal way to keep track of my literature library.

Pros

Excellent search capabilities, and makes it easy to organize my library into different subject folders.

Cons

It would be good if articles could be searched in different properties (eg authors) rather than full text.

Review source

Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication.

Independent research methodology

Capterra's researchers use a mix of verified reviews, independent research and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or speak to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.

How Capterra verifies reviews

Capterra carefully verified over 2.5 million+ reviews to bring you authentic software experiences from real users. Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.

How Capterra ensures transparency

Capterra lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Capterra is free for users. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to receive web traffic and sales opportunities. Sponsored profiles include a link-out icon that takes users to the provider's website.
